We are proud to share that Drs. Denise Fyffe and Helen Genova have been appointed to the 400‑plus‑member Transition Interdisciplinary Advisory Task Force, and Carmen Cusido has joined the Jobs, Opportunity, and Prosperity for All Transition Action Team.

These Action Teams will meet regularly to address well‑defined questions and engage directly with key stakeholders—from small businesses and commuter roundtables to conversations with parents and students. The Advisory Task Force will provide input to the Governor‑elect and the Action Teams, bringing a broader perspective to priority areas such as affordable healthcare, stronger education for New Jersey’s children, lowering housing costs, and more.

We congratulate our colleagues on this important opportunity to shape New Jersey’s future.
